The last Gourmet Gala in Unley
Another great TDU in SA.
And a reasonable crowd at the street party on King William Road, Unley.
That party cost Unley Council $275,000 (or 0.5+% of the last rate rise for Unley residents).
A great party, but at a huge cost to the rate payers.
Soon we will hear from Council that the event brought in excess of $1million in revenue to the local businesses.
After 20 years of funding by Council, maybe it's time for the local businesses to contribute more to fund the event.
I feel that the street party has run its race and Unley Council should save money and perhaps fund a few smaller and more community themed events in our larger parks.
Its time to change!
Unley should give it up and let the event go to Kangaroo Island in 2021.
